Aletha Health Launches Practitioner Course to Extend Science-Backed Education

San Francisco, CA / Jul 14, 2025 / Aletha Health

Aletha Health (Aletha), the pioneering brand in iliacus muscle tension relief, positions itself for business expansion with the launch of a practitioner course designed to deliver comprehensive training for its science-backed techniques. The health startup has propelled into popularity over the last five years through its patented hip hook, the Mark®, the world’s first tool designed to specifically release tension in the iliacus muscle. The new practitioner course provides professionals with a comprehensive study into the company’s industry-leading muscle tension relief practices developed by founder Christine Koth, MPT. 

“After decades as a physical therapist, I saw firsthand how overlooked muscle tension was often the root of persistent pain. I created the Aletha Health Foundations for Practitioners Course to fill that gap—giving professionals the tools to release tension at its source,” said Christine Koth, founder of Aletha Health. “By equipping practitioners across disciplines with these techniques, we’re extending our mission to deliver simple, effective, drug-free solutions that improve mobility, relieve pain, and support long-term well-being.”  

Since launching in 2019, Aletha has sold more than 600,000 products worldwide, earning the trust of over 700 medical professionals, including doctors, physical therapists, and chiropractors. The new practitioner course is designed for trainers, coaches, therapists, and movement specialists who want to expand their skill set with science-backed techniques that address muscle tension at its source. Titled “Intro to Aletha Health: Foundations for Practitioners with Christine Koth, MPT”, the curriculum is presented in a web-based, self-guided format and can be accessed via desktop and mobile devices. Thirty lessons are structured across five modules, and practitioners will learn how to integrate Aletha Health tools into a holistic movement program that enhances mobility, reduces discomfort, and improves client outcomes. 

Practitioners can purchase access to the course for $199 USD. Upon enrollment, each course participant will also receive a complimentary digital download of Koth’s top-selling book Tight Hip, Twisted Core – The Key to Unresolved Pain. Fitness professionals, group exercise instructors and personal trainers will also be eligible to receive continuing education credits (CEUs) to help maintain their certifications. 

Aletha Founder Christine Koth, MPT is a renowned physical therapist and is recognized as the industry authority on iliacus muscle tension relief. For her hands-on company leadership, Koth has helped Aletha earn the Women-Owned Small Business Certification as recognized by the U.S. Small Business Administration.
